SEA & ACUA Ocean Team Up to Boost Naval Submarine Detection Capabilities
SEA and ACUA Ocean have joined forces to bolster naval forces' submarine detection and tracking capabilities. The partnership aims to reduce dependence on large crewed assets by deploying advanced sonar systems aboard long-endurance uncrewed surface vessels (USVs).
The collaboration, facilitated by a Memorandum of Understanding, will see SEA's KraitSense towed array sonar evaluated for integration with ACUA Ocean's autonomous platforms. Richard Flitton, SEA's Managing Director, believes this will bring powerful complementary capabilities.
Neil Tinmouth, ACUA Ocean's CEO, sees the combined solution as an autonomous system that complements and extends existing platforms' benefits. The partnership aims to enhance anti-submarine warfare (ASW) and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) operations. The planned capability is modular, scalable, and cost-effective, unlocking new operational concepts for persistent wide-area sensing and undersea situational awareness.
SEA and ACUA Ocean's partnership seeks to present their integrated capabilities to international defense and maritime actors worldwide. By combining their expertise in acoustic sensors and ocean-going unmanned platforms, they aim to strengthen naval forces' ability to detect and track submarines while reducing reliance on large crewed assets.
